Hello again !

First, many thanks to the people who answered me, and now a try to
precisize my problem:

Do the laborartory data you know have other relations then 1 to 1 or are
there some redundant data which can be reduced by introducing a relation...
?
So, my problem is not which tool or programming language to use, not how to
*process* the data, but how to *represent* the data efficiently.

If you have some knowledge related to this problem, please share them with
me!
And: *Please* continue the discussion in only one group. I propose the
group
news:comp.programming

Have many thanks in advance !

Part 1 was:
Do you know some good reasons to put (chemical) *laboratory data* in a
relational database (Access or other, no matter) instead of Excel(-like)
sheets (which is usualy, as I heared) ? Then please tell me them. I must
write a programm to process this data and have to argument my choose.
